Only if you carried GAP insurance will it pay off what you owe to the Lienholder. If not then they will only pay what they valued your car to be worth which may or may not be enough to pay off the loan.
What do you do if the insurance for a totaled car does not pay off the car loan?
I faced the same thing about a year ago. The insurance company did not want to give me what was needed. I got on-line and found many cars that were just like mine and demonstrated them that my car was worth more than they were wanting to give me. They still did not want to give me what the car was worth. So I went to puny claims court and filed suit on the driver of the other car. The person’s insurance has to represent them. Also go and look at the comps that the insurance company are using for your car to see if you can substitute the car for what they want to give you. ResponseUltimately it is your responsibility that you either made low payments, took out a very long loan, or picked a car with high depreciation. The insurance company is not liable for the inflated amount you owe–only what the car is worth. ResponseThe insurance company will only give you the value of the vehicle, as per the “Kelly Blue Book”. They will also send an appraiser out to see what the condition of the car was, as in mileage, any previous harm. If the accident was another driver’s fault, you have to sue him and/or his insurance company for the remaining balance.Whatever you borrowed to obtain the vehicle wil always be more than the car is worth. You have already lost money on it as soon as you drove it off the car lot. But do your research. Go online for “Kelly Blue Book”, and get the estimate of the car’s value. If it is more, then dispute it with the insurance company. Print the page out. ResponseWhen you bought the car fresh or used from the dealer you had the option to purchase something called GAP INSURANCE from them (the Dealer, not the insurance company) for your exact situation. If you did not have enough equity in your car for the insurance pay off to cover it AND did not have gap insurance. basically you are screwed and responsible for the rest of the loan amount car or no car. Some people believe Gap insurance is a rip off so they do not suggest it to you and some just don’t know what it is. They do not need to be selling cars. Not fair but the way of life. Father is an insurance sales man. I also had a female hit me I had GAP insurance and she did not. She still had to pay off the balance on the loan even tho’ she did not have the car. The courts won’t do much because you had the option to purchase gap insurance and you did not, it does not matter that you did not know.
If your car is worth 12K but you owe 20K on it will the insurance company pay it off if it is totaled in an accident?
You can only collect the fair market value or retail book value depending on the regulations as established by your state’s insurance commissioner. The only way you can collect the difference inbetween the Actual Cash Value of your vehicle and the Payoff is through GAP insurance. This is usually suggested to you during the purchase of your vehicle but can be purchased later. .
At the time of purchase, the suggest to purchase GAP insurance may seem like a ploy by the salesman to sell you something you don’t need. However GAP insurance is a valuable option should this situation arise. GAP insurance is what its name implies, insurance coverage for the “GAP” inbetween the fair market value of your vehicle and the payoff amount.

If you have utter coverage and total your car will the insurance pay for another car even tho’ the one you crashed wasn’t paid off yet?
noNo, the insurance company has a responsibility to the lienholder very first, then you get the balance of the settlement based on the local market value of your car. Insurance companies are not responsible for purchasing you a fresh car and the settlement is based on the value of the car you had an accident in. The settlement is not based on what it will cost to buy another vehicle.
What can you do if your insurance is cancelled the same day you get in an accident and total your car?
Reaction .
Depends on when it was cancelled. Before or after the accident? When did you get the cancellation notice? If you were cancelled before, then obviously you were uninsured. If the accident was your fault, then any costs are yours alone and not the insurance company’s..

If you are in an accident and you have no insurance what will the bank do when they find out your car is totaled?
The lender has several options but the one you will be worried with is: SUE YOU for the money. Depending on how long you didnt have ins. the lender had most likely placed ins. on the loan that covers them but NOT you. You will still be looking at a Balance DUE. If ya cant ins. it, ya cant AFFORD to drive it. Good LuckIt’s a little more serious than Roosta’s opinion. The vehicle ruined was the collateral which officially established your loan as a SECURED LOAN. That is the condition you signed upon completing your buyer’s contract which is to maintain at minimum Comprehensive and Collision coverages however most of them specifically state such coverage does NOT substitute for bodily injury/property harm liability required by law to even Budge the car without a towing truck in all 50 states and most Canadian territories. Many lenders will like she said add insurance that ONLY covers the repair/replacement costs of their precious investment and they do it almost instantly. If by some chance it’s totalled and they haven’t done so you might be brought up on criminal charges unless you are able to produce the entire remaining balance instantaneously. Unless of course you’re not at fault, in which case the other person’s insurance must pay. These possibilites are going to be the least of your problems if you’re in a crash, at fault with no liability coverage. You’ll most likely spend time in jail not to mention get stuck railing scummy filthy low life busses for the rest of your life, or however long you’re in North America (USA, Mexico, or Canada) They are right. The best thing you can do is keep paying your payments, and hope they don’t find out. ok thank you for your answers but the accident definitly was her falt problem is her isurance doesnt want to cover of coarse she denies!being there at all so what can i do for now as far as the payements and what is ussually the out come?

Whose insurance pays if you are borrowing another’s car and are in an accident?

The insurance for the car will pay, not the driver. Sadly, you are not required to pay anything, but if you are a responsible person, then you will….especially if it was your fault.

Will car insurance pay for a car totaled in a DUI accident?
Reaction .
It should. If the “at fault” vehicle is insured, it’s supposed to cover the victim’s vehicle 100%. If the “at fault” vehicle has comprehensive and collision insurance that insurance is supposed to cover the at fault vehicle up to the deductable amount.Note that the toasted driver will liberate his insurance and be required to get the VERY expensive DUI “insurance endorsment” since he/she is now in the highest risk bracket..
BTW, when a tipsy driver causes a collision it’s not called an “accident”. Accident is when things just happen. Driving tipsy is the CAUSE of the collision and as such the collision is not called an accident. Call it a wreck, crash or just about anything else that takes away the implication of a random act.

If you only have liability and your car is totaled in an accident will your insurance pay for it?
Car insurance:liabiltityNo. Because liability only covers the damages to the other persons car in an accident. “Three. Property Harm LiabilityThis coverage pays for harm you (or someone driving the car with your permission) may cause to someone else’s property. Usually, this means harm to someone else�s car, but it also includes harm to lamp posts, telephone poles, fences, buildings or other structures your car hit.” See the link below for more information on coverage. ResponseNo. Liability takes care of the other driver and his vehicle only. ReactionNo. Unluckily, liability only covers the OTHER fellow’s car. If you do not buy the “comprehensive and collision” coverage, YOUR car is only covered if the OTHER fellow is at fault. ReactionIn the UK there are three main types of car insurance: 1. third party; Two. third party fire and theft and Trio. comprehensive. The very first type will not pay for harm to your vehicle in any event; the 2nd will pay if harm to your car is caused due to fire or theft and the third will pay in any event for harm to your vehicle. If however harm is caused by the user of another vehicle you will be entitled to claim compensation from the other driver’s motor insurance for your vehicle harm and if no insurance is in place form the Motor Insurers Bureau. See the related link entitled “car accident claim” to see how to demonstrate legal fault for your car accident.

It depends on what insurance coverage you have. The liability coverage that all states require you to carry on any registered vehicle will cover the other person’s harm. If you also purchased collision insurance, that will pay for your vehicle (less the deductable).

If my car is totaled and not paid for will your insurance pay for it?
Car Loans .
In most cases, insurance companies are only required to pay up to the book value of your car. What this means is that if you owe $15,000 on a car loan and the car is only worth $12,000, you will still be held responsible for the remaining balance which in this case would be $Three,000. This is also known as being upside down. If you purchase GAP, a.k.a a debt cancellation contract, then you would not be held liable for the remaining $Trio,000. This is why it pays to purchase a car that has good residual value meaning it shouldn’t depreciate much quicker than you are able to pay off your loan.

If you have utter coverage car insurance and you have an accident and are killed does insurance pay settlement?
An unendorsed ISO Individual Auto policy should pay your “Part B-Medical Payments Coverage” Limit to an insured,which is a no-fault coverage. This is usually a low limit of 1,000 or Five,000 but can be enlargened. Uninsured/Underinsured coverage could pay bodily injury or funeral expenses you incur if the negligent vehicle doesn’t carry insurance or doesn’t have an adequate amount. Also, there are endorsements available that could indemnify after a death such as “Auto Death Indemnity”, which sounds like what you are needing.

Will private medical insurance or car insurance pay medical expenses in an auto accident?
Your choice, depending on which coverage is better. Attempt the auto insurance very first. but recall, their job is to minimize costs, and sometimes you have to go where they send you. they may have thresholds depending on the policy and state laws. your medical coverage is designed to cut costs by keeping you alive and healthy to keep paying them. they don’t make money off dead people or people too sick to work and keep coverage. they will usually end up paying for long term issues, especially if they don’t pop up right away or if a pre existing conditioned is worsed. how much wor$e is the back ache, truly? you should go through the auto insurance if its drastic, expensive, extensive care. if its minor aches and anguish just pay your Ten$ or $20 copay and go to your primary care physician (your doctor). if you get hurt in an accident, go to the closest hospital right away, don’t delay or the ins co may attempt to loophole out of paying you, thinking scam alert. i once tapped a duo in their 50’s when i was 16 and only driving for a few months. he slammed on his violates after realizing he was about to miss his turn. at 20 miles in a 25 (it was 200 yards after a turn) i hit a pile of moist leaves next to a stone wall and skidded into them. i was sited no fault as i could not get off the road or go into opposing traffic (why they stopped). they were complaining about how hard i hit them and she was telling he already had a bad back and now this. the office on the scene asked them did they want him to call them an ambulance to take them to a hospital. She said right away no, they were going to their own doctor. after they left the cop told me they would be trouble. but they were denied due to lack of physical proof and officer testimony. so the moral is because some scam, they reason all are potential scammers until proven actually hurt.
Your finance car was stolen does your insurance claim go to your finance company to pay off the cars debt?
The monies from the insurance company will go towards the car payoff. Now, the insurance company is entitled to pay off the worth of the car.

The Blue Book(www.kelleybluebook.com) value of this vehicle is $Eighteen,000.00. If they pay total value of the vehicle $Legitimate,000.00 you may still owe the rest $2000.00 to the loan of the vehicle. This means you were upside down on the loan…

Where do I get help to pay for my car accidents and insurance in hit and run?
Generally, you cannot, in the absence of collision or uninsured motorist coverage. If the hit and run driver is eventually identified you may be able to sue them personally. Both collision coverage and uninsured motorist coverage are “first-party” coverages, meaning that they cover your own vehicle. Collision coverage provides property harm for your own vehicle irrespective of fault for the collision. It is normally subject to a deductible, meaning there will be an amount that you will have to pay out of pocket. You will have to check your policy, or with your insurance agent, to see if you have the coverage, because it is generally not mandatory. That said, if the vehicle is financed, the entity through which you financed it may have required that you get collision coverage to protect the collateral. If you did not, the company that financed the car may have obtained “force-placed” coverage for you and charged your account the premium for it. Therefore, you should contact the finance company and determine if it did and if so, get the specifics on the coverage so that you can make a claim. Uninsured motorist coverage provides benefits to you if you were injured (usually there is a requirement of permanency, but state law controls) by the negligence of an uninsured driver. It does not provide any property harm benefits, so depending upon the damages that you sustained, it may be moot whether you have it or not. If your state requires you to maintain liability coverage on your car, it will generally also require that your insurer have suggested you the chance to buy or to waive the purchase of uninsured motorist coverage.
What kind of car insurance pays for your injuries when you’re in an accident in your car?
Three types of auto insurance come to mind: medical payments (or individual injury protection), liability coverage and under/uninsured motorist coverage. Med Pay is coverage that protects the occupants of a car and pays medical bills up to the amount of the med pay policy boundaries. Liability coverage is the car insurance that pays on behalf of the at-fault driver. This coverage makes a lump sum payment to the injured person who is not at fault. UM coverage is possessed by the injured person and pays them in cases where the at-fault driver does not have any insurance or does not have enough liability coverage.

Yes, you can usually but it back because it is then inbetween you and the insurance company.
